Servings: 12 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 3-oz box lemon gelatin
  • 1 3-oz box orange gelatin
  • 2 cups boiling water divided
  • 1 cup lemon-lime soda chilled
  • 1 cup vanilla ice cream softened
  • 1/2 cup mandarin oranges drained

Method
 

  1. Dissolve both gelatins in 2 cups boiling water until clear.
  2. Divide the mixture, stirring the chilled soda into one half and pouring it into a dish to chill until set.
  3. Whisk the softened ice cream into the other half for a creamy snowy layer.
  4. Pour the creamy layer over the set citrus layer and tuck in the mandarin oranges.
  5. Chill until both layers are firm, then cut and serve.

Notes

Let the ice cream soften fully so the creamy layer stays smooth.
